Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life, but define yourself. Harvey S. Firestone

The people with whom you work reflect your own attitude. If you are suspicious, unfriendly and condescending, you will find these unlovely traits echoed all about you. But if you are on your best behavior, you will bring out the best in persons with whom you are going to spend most of your waking hours.

Some people get spiritual because they see the light and some people get spiritual because they feel the heat!

How do you know if you're truly a servant? See how you react the next time someone treats you like one.

From The Corner Of My Mind

* It was 23 degrees on the drive over this morning. I had no break in the wind yesterday and it blew right into my face all day. It was cold.
* The weary travelers spent the night in Tucumcari NM last night. When they checked in the temperature there was 12 degrees right before sunset.
* KATHLEEN SPOILER ALERT: The season finale of SOA was pretty good last night. I was spot on about the gun deal going down with the Irish. I knew the Feds were not gonna bust in guns blazing. But Jax taking the chair was a big surprise.
* The sun is peeking over the horizon as I type this. Beautiful.
* Mike Ford is out as crew chief of the #11 Toyota Fed Ex car that is driven by Denny Hamlin and owned by Joe Gibbs Racing. That is the seventh crew chief change to happen since the drop of the checkered flag at Homestead less than three weeks ago. Four of them were either in the Chase or had been in the Chase last year. One of them even winning the Championship. For you stick and ball people, that is the equivalent of releasing the super bowl winning coach, or releasing the coach that had been in the playoffs. NASCAR is the most competitive sport in the world. You can't be dedicated to this sport for 6 months out of the year. These guys were in the shop working and building cars the Monday morning after the race season ended.
* Speculating here: Darian Grubbs to the #11 car? Mike Ford to the #22? I would bet a steak dinner on that and I would also say that before the week ends it will come true.
* W-spouse and I whipped up some chili and cornbread last night. It was so good, I went back for seconds. W-stepson#3 went back for thirds. There was rumor about a Chocolate cake in the house. I never found it. I could be lying about that last part.
* There may be a video floating around of me dancing the Wiggle Wiggle dance to LMFAO - Sexy And You Know It. One of my friends played a joke on me and photo shopped the whole video. Don't believe it if you see it, I would NEVER do such a thing.
* Just open it. Take all our military that is the Middle East and send them over there for about a week. Problem solved.
* How about JUST a cheeseburger and fries, with a diet Dr Pepper.
* Ooops, but it was aimed at the target.
* Time to thaw some stuff out and get to work, see ya Around The Corner!

The internet is forever, my friend.

The video was obviously photo shopped. The real W would have done a much better interpretation of the dance.

It's so difficult to find the right arbor to laser bore-sight a cannon before mounting the Leupold scope...
